Yep... My friend also wants this... kung hindi ko pa sya wa-warning-an eh hindi nya i-pa-play... 
Sure, it makes sense. It would be a little too late to have the warning when you're playing the map. However, you'll turn it off anyway if you're detecting a disturbing SB. You're already able to do so with Epilepsy Warning maps.
To know it beforehand is always good.
wait so will this remove the annoying warning on the beginning of some songs?
I'll support this....
Yeah sometimes warning covers some circle makeing it hard to play when it's your first try..
There's a request somewhere to add it to the beatmap listing on the site and osu!direct too so you know before even downloading it. This is a good idea too, but you've already downloaded the map at this point.
I can't seem to find it but I'm pretty sure it exists...

It doesn't really bother me to download or start playing the map to get the message. After all, I can turn off the storyboard, but only once I've started the map anyways. So I'm pretty much neutral on this one. I'm much more worried about maps without warnings.
or sth like this. 2min crappy design, someone might make a cool one~
the warning is displayed below the circles since one of the last updates.haha5957 wrote:

I like this, it makes sense to know it beforehand. I'd also like to have an access to Fun Spoiler settings for such maps beforehand, so the SB can be disabled without starting the song and immediately pausing it.
That can be fixed by a BAT.bwross wrote:

Mercurial
good idea
yes please
A few things, you're already able to disable Storyboard if the map has an epilepsy warning, So there's no need to have a check for that in there, the epilepsy warning in song select could display the exact same warning that displays in-game in front of the background but behind the rest, so the player knows it has an epilepsy warning. Also i'd propose for the epilepsy warning to continue displaying while the beatmap is loading, and until it normally fades out (maybe another feature request?).
As others have pointed out a warning on the beatma listings and osu! direct is way better, however some people download beatmap packs so i can see this being useful, but not as useful as:
Why not just include a toggle in options about you being affected by epilepsy that automatically disables StoryBoard on any map that has Epilepsy Warning! (inb4 another feature request)

I guess most people are unaware of that when supporting this request.Sakura wrote:

We already have that on the beatmap listing, the "Has SB" filter. Guess more information for osu!direct wouldn't hurt. t/10856?hilit=+osu+directSakura wrote:

I guess most SBs have an epilepsy warning on them anyway.
Now that sounds like a better feature request. I figured nobody else would request it, so I did: t/103555/Sakura wrote:

That comment was tied to the sentences before it and the suggestions above. The point was that I'm not that worried that I'll have problems with flashes before seeing the warning when I start a map... unless the map doesn't have a warning.Sakura wrote:

There's a problem with getting them fixed... I ran into one recently, I didn't feel like doing much immediately afterwards (I got a bit overly exposed because I was playing Taiko, and so the flashes were peripheral in the background and I didn't notice them until I was quite nauseated), and now I can't remember what it was. There's a good chance that it had white.png in it... almost every map that's got me has that blasted file.
The thing is, I probably wouldn't use it. I don't have epilepsy, I just have a bad reaction to bright flashes (quite possibly as a side effect of medication I was on). Most storyboards with the warning cause me no problem at all... many of which are held up as particularly problematic by many people, but are actually more like a blur that's just hard on the eyes and not a real flash. There's just too many false positives for me to hand it over to automation, I'll always feel the need to check. I imagine that feature will get a lot of support, though... from people who want every storyboard turned off automatically always, and will take whatever they can get to those ends.Sakura wrote:

Great ideas shouldn't be buried.
I approve.
Why not putting the epilepsy warning on osu!direct and beatmap listing website as well?
